The following was a reply from our staff to my query on the problem (and I hope it helps): ********************************************************************* [We] tried to get WinPitch running on Virtual PC in our lab and were unsuccessful. I'm able to record some very bad sound in VPC through the Sound Recorder Accessory. It stutters and sounds terrible. The Connectix Knowledge Base knows that this is what happens and recommends turning off Virtual Memory when recording sound through Virtual PC. They don't elaborate on this so I think they believe it to be a normal thing to do. Personally, I've had problems with installs that ask me to turn off VM. This VM option may not, however, have anything to do with the sound recording functions of WinPitch which might be more app specific than system specific. ********************************************* Read Gilgen, Director L&S Learning Support Services University of Wisconsin (608) 262-1408 [log in to unmask] >>> LLTI-Editor <[log in to unmask]> 01/17/00 12:09PM >>> --- Forwarded Message from Jörg Waltje <[log in to unmask]> --- >Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2000 17:18:31 -0500 >To: [log in to unmask] >From: Jörg Waltje <[log in to unmask]> >Subject: Recording in Virtual PC? ------------------ Dear Colleagues: I need to repost this since we never got one single reply. We are still trying to get it to work, but maybe it is not possible... Thank you for your time. Jörg ---------------------------------- We are a Mac lab but we run Virtual PC 2.0 on our G3 all-in-one computers. An interesting problem has appeared: We are trying to use the French Your Way 2.0 software with speech recognition, however, we cannot get the program to record the voice of the student. The control panel for recording is set up correctly on the Mac, you can hear yourself talk/breathe, yet the sound does not arrive on the PC side. In the Virtual PC Windows control panel, the recording level is greyed out and cannot be changed. Does anyone know of a remedy, or do we just have to accept the fact that the recording/playback feature will not work on a Mac running Virtual PC? \\\/// / _ _ \ (| (.)(.) |) -----------------.OOOo--()--oOOO.------------------ Dr. Jörg Waltje Assistant Professor/Director LRC Ohio University Dept. of Modern Languages, Gordy Hall 283 Athens, Ohio 45701 (USA) Ph: (740) 593-2748 Fax: (740) 593-0729 http://www.tcom.ohiou.edu/OU_Language/lab/home.html -----------------.oooO------------------------------ ( ) Oooo. \ ( ( ) \_) ) / (_/ "We create our reality in our own thoughts ...
